| Karintoh is the name of the snack which is
made of wheat, egg
and a bit of sugar. Deep
fried then powdered
by sugar cane snow. One
of the best presents/souvenirs
of Asakusa
for all ages. Box
and ribbon are kawaii as
well. Kozakura in
Japanese means small cherry
blossom. Love cute

happiness. Usagi (rabbit)
Manju (sweet) melts
so well, too. Expires

the one of Kuya, no one

is better. Sweet and
salt, the combination
is somewhat your own
life? Special mouth-watering
